This recipe has not been added to the archives (at Cuisine Members plus) as yet...and my scanner's done. But if someone doesn't post this for you today, I'll type it up - hang on.

Coke-brined Grilled Chicken

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : A List Poultry

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
FOR THE CHICKEN AND BRINE--
1 whole chicken (4-6 lb.)
1 liter coca-cola
1/2 cup kosher salt
FOR THE RUB
Combine; rub over chicken and grill:
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons paprika
SERVE WITH:
Bourbon BBQ or Sweet Carolina Dipping Sauce

Butter fly the chicken. Poke about 6 holes in the underside of each chicken half--this helps the brine to soak deeply into the meat. Combine the Coke and salt in a large resealable plastic bag, stirring to dissolve the salt. Place the chicken halves in the brine, seal the bag, and refrigerate for 2 hours. Preheat the grill to high.

Combine the rub ingredients in a bowl. Remove the chicken from the brine and pat dry with paper towels (discard the brine). Rub the paste over the chicken, then let it stand for 15 minutes.

Turn 1 side of the grill to low (maintain high heat on the other side). Arrange both chicken halves on the low-heat section, skin side down. Top the halves with a cast iron skillet and a brick. Cover and grill for 10 minutes, then rotate the chicken 45°. Reposition the skillet and brick on the chicken; grill for 10 more minutes, or until skin is crispy and brown.

Flip the chicken over and grill, without weight, for 20-30 minutes, or until it's 180° in the thigh.

Serve chicken with dipping sauces.

I'm a newbie, just learned of/subscribed to the magazine. What is "Cuisine Members Plus"? It would be great if there were an archive of recipes for subscribers (and a search feature). Perhaps this "Cuisine Members Plus" is what I'm looking for?


Re: ISO recipe for Coke Brined Chicken - bjcotton - 07-06-2007

Welcome mcdsid! The MembersPlus was only open in its Beta form for a short while and then closed to membership. Several of us managed to "get in" on the Beta testing and so have access to it. It includes all the recipes ever published in CusineAtHome. Those of us that did get in are more than willing to help our fellow CAH members find recipes. The "Search" function is not as elaborate as in most other forums, but we can usually find a recipe one way or another. If you're curious about a recipe, just post that fact and one of us will do our best to locate it for you or one similar.

Again, welcome to our little corner of the world...there are members from all over the world.

Welcome mcdsid! Please come back and join us often. You can pick up a lot of good recipes on this forum, as someone is always trying something new. There are nice people here, and we all have a lot of fun.

Welcome, mcdsid! I didn't get in on the member's plus either, and I agree with the archive and search function.

Enjoy it here, it gets fun!
